The best way of guessing what Bush will do is asking, what’s the worst thing he could do to America? Whatever it is, that’s what he’ll do. I think he’s been possessed by bin Laden, because everything he’s done has been exactly what Al Quaeda hoped for. Right now, bin Laden is praying to Allah that we’ll be stupid enough to attack Iran. That would be the cherry on his halal sundae, the one thing that could actually finish us off as a Superpower.

For the last few years Grand Rapids has been plastered with billboards trying to get you to take Cornerstone University seriously.  Apparently the reasoning is that those billboards were cheaper than actually having tenured professors.
